Vampires
Satanic Warmaster Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sorrow rides out
As spectral knights
A wind of grief
From an open coffin
When the bells of funeral chime
Through the nightfall
A black star rises
At the final twilight

Gargle the blood
Spit the cruor

From beyond darkness
A revenant blaze
Fire of conflagration
Burns in empty eyes
Disgusting tongues
That lick your face
In morbid hunger
When you sleep

Gargle the blood
Spit the cruor

Sacrifice
To end your life
Carnage
To light the fire
And forever
We rule the night
All exultant
Vampires

We are the worms that crawl
On the broken wings of an angel

Gargle the blood
Spit the cruor

Sacrifice
To end your life
Carnage
To light the fire
And forever
We rule the night




All exultant
Vampires

Overall Meaning

The song "Vampires" by Satanic Warmaster is a dark and haunting portrayal of the existence of creatures of the night, who rise from beyond the darkness to assert their rule over the world. The lyrics of the song convey a sense of sadness and grief that surrounds death and the coming of nightfall. The spectral knights that ride out in sorrow from open coffins represent a bleak and foreboding image of the undead, who are awakened from their slumber by the bells of a funeral.


The image of a black star rising at the final twilight evokes the sense of an ominous and powerful force that comes with the coming of the night. The vampires in the song are depicted as horrific, with disgusting tongues that lick the faces of their victims in morbid hunger. The repeated refrain of "Gargle the blood, spit the cruor" conjures up images of the bloodlust of these sinister beings, who revel in the carnage they cause.


The final stanza of the song is particularly striking, with the line "We are the worms that crawl on the broken wings of an angel". This line alludes to the idea that the vampires in the song are not just predatory monsters, but also represent a corrupt and fallen aspect of humanity. The song as a whole is a dark and disturbing work, filled with images of death, horror, and fear.
